Recent studies among telecommunication providers show dealership and partnership with other operators and public institutes. As reviewed by many economic analysts, clean partnership does not incite any illegal operation and is therefore permissible.

To better understand the role of telecommunication in our modern world as well as its implications in our community, it is best to learn about the revolving factors surrounding its existence. Many emerging mobile operators may be partly funded and circulated by the government through public-private partnership.

Certain communities, especially those in the rural areas, may confront significantly higher deployment cost due to the population and the risk it concludes. However, in the fourth most populous country in the world, telecommunications in Indonesia seems to have other issues other than numbers.

Indonesia is one of the countries that have government-funded companies. Its telecommunication company, Telkomsel is currently the leading operator with more than 37% of subscribers. It succeeded XL Axiata, owned by Malaysian-based despite XL's integration with Axis Capital Group, also one of the top ten leading telecommunications company in the archipelago. Almost all of the population of major cities in Indonesia such as Jakarta and Java has been supporting Telkomsel. It may be because it implores greater attention to the public since it is government-owned.

In rural areas, broadband partnership in the archipelago is being pushed with different sectors of the government and other institutions because of the challenges presented by the country's geographical attributes. A partnership can enhance economic issues of terrain through sharing of capital cost and accessibility then enhancing revenue potential.

In other times, the partnership can create a higher, more affordable and faster broadband connection and solution. Double marketing can also be profited from it as even if the state can fund partnership projects, there are still times which it only covers less than or half of the cost. Although local, state or federal funding may be available to support community broadband efforts, it rarely covers the entire cost of a project. A partnership with commercial operators, however, can complement public funding opportunities, while also bringing expertise on particular technical issues to an initiative. In all these cases, successful partnerships can leverage public financing, community assets and local leadership, in collaboration with private-sector expertise and capital, to expand broadband.

With the spread of risks and costs and a lot of individuals involved, issues can be easily solved and warnings preempted.
